old skool Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Well, these aren't the best pictures. I'll have to take better ones later, but I thought I would share. I broke down a WWII ammo pouch, tossed in a SC PVD sew-in buckle and this is what I ended up with. I left the original white stitching for effect.

peepshow Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Looks like it could use a little Dr. Jackson's Hide Rejuvenator, though, old skool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old skool Posted February 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Looks like it could use a little Dr. Jackson's Hide Rejuvenator, though, old skool. I used a bunch on it actually....the leather isn't the best unfortunately. It is quite dried out. But I think this will motivate me to try again.

jds Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 wow old skool, simply stunning combo! if you are trying again what happens to this one?! I need some talent like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 Absolutely awesome strap The shredded section by the top lug detracts a little from the appearance, but, other than that, the leather looks really good. Awesome combo, I bet it'll be getting a lot of wrist time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peepshow Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 ...The shredded section by the top lug detracts a little from the appearance, but, other than that, the leather looks really good... I don't think it even looks that bad, I just worry about how it will hold up. Looks good, though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeJay Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I don't think it even looks that bad, I just worry about how it will hold up. Looks good, though! Indeed, it looks awesome. The bottom lug looks fine, but the top one looks just a little too distressed, and, as you say, how well it might hold up would be a concern. Not enough to stop it being an awesome strap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old skool Posted February 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I am not sure how it will hold up...I'll have to give it a lot of wrist time to see. I think the distressing could be good or bad depending on what you want. I personally would prefer less... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
